@wtg said in Lay's crisps (potato chips to us):

Never heard of Ketchup chips. Checked them out and it seems they really are a Canadian thing...

From the comments:

I knew something wasn’t right with our southern neighbours when I found out they didn’t have ketchup chips. 😝

Yep! And your article talks about Hostess chips which people STILL talk about. There is even a retro clothing company that has made shirts with the Hostess Munchies on them. Their Salt and Vinegar chips were by far the saltiest and vinegariest of all the brands. Lays just isn’t the same - but I’m glad they kept the Ketchup flavour!

I did not see a problem as long as they install them next to NARCAN vending machines.

Here is an article:

That seems consistent with the common legal strategy of sueing anyone involved in any way in the hopes that someone will pay.

If you have a Gmail account, I recommend uploading your video to YouTube.
You can create a “channel” with a different name from your Google/Gmail username (so random strangers won’t figure out your Gmail address just from your YouTube channel name).
You can also make your videos “unlisted” (so random strangers cannot find your video via search or via Google’s recommendation algorithm).
Among all the “free” video hosting sites, YouTube is by far the most open and highest performing.

E.g.:

I met a couple that lives south of Tucson in Green Valley in the winter and in Flagstaff in the summer.
Flagstaff/NASU is at 7000 ft. Phoenix/ASU is at 1086 ft. Average 4 degrees per 1000 feet. 6 x 4 =

Saw friends that live in Pueblo last week. They said it gets very hot there. Heat and rats seem to be present wherever the plague is found.

A fascinating oeuvre. I wonder how much the twin lens reflex (Rollieflex) she apparently used contributed to her art. It lends a definite different perspective.

It does cause one to wonder how many unrecognized artists pass through without acknowledgement?

I think it's a new(er) thing. Not surprised; their subscriber base keeps dwindling.

I’m still too close to years of driving $100 beaters around to get too uppity and proud of a car.

Although I took a long look at one of the retro T-Birds today.

@Steve-Miller said in Who’s in the heat wave ?:

Amazon sells battery packs that will not only charge your phones but will also jump start your car. From what I can tell you can charge phones dozens of times before you have to recharge the battery pack.

I keep one in each car.

@Lisa recommended this one. The price goes down to $75 or 80 pretty routinely.
